How do we know Christ is the center of the church?

Answered in 1 source

The Apostle Paul emphasizes in 2 Corinthians 11:2 that the church is espoused to one husband, Jesus Christ.

In 2 Corinthians 11:2, the apostle Paul declares his jealousy for the church as he espouses it to one husband, Jesus Christ. This illustrates that the church’s identity and mission are centered solely around Christ. The notion of being a 'chaste virgin' emphasizes the need for purity and single-minded devotion to Christ and not allowing distractions or deviations from His person and work. Any focus on denominational identification over personal faith in Christ leads to spiritual unfaithfulness, reinforcing that Christ must remain the focal point of the church’s teaching and worship.
